Trying an experimental dry rub for smoked chicken drumsticks today. Pecan chunks will provide the rest of the flavor.

2 Tbsp garlic powder
1 tsp Sichuan pepper
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp cayenne
1 black cardomom pod (microplane)

Seems a heck of a lot people really do think its only hate speech or racist if its aimed towards them and their kind

Now that is using the 300 km ATACMS, what is your take on the decision to only give them the 160 km version until recently? I know the publicly stated reason was concern that there would be strikes deep into Russian territory, and things would escalate out of control.

To me, that was denying them the tools to adequately defend themselves. How many Russian missile strikes could have been prevented if some key airfields had been cratered a year (or two) ago?

What do we gain by blowing each other up, here?

How does that make life better? For you? For people suffering atrocities around the world? At home?

This could be a place to learn—to share resources and talk and consider.

We have SO much to learn. Events are unfolding and most folks know only an inkling of history and context yet swing opinions like a weighted bat.

Please pause. Please take a breath. Look at the sky.

Hurting each other here helps no one.

💜🙏

More new music - "Interweave" for mixed brass and woodwind chamber ensemble. Feedback appreciated.

Please, pause and consider that this was a *very* ill person, who was led further from reality by a multitude of factors.

But this was a human, with family, friends, neighbors.

What he did was awful and deranged.

This is a tragedy, that has inflicted harm on others due to their witness status.

Let's not extend the harm this instigates.

Please I beg you not to call him a loon. He was unwell and without supports... Just like me. Please have compassion, I'm considered crazy by the dm5 too. But I'm trying, I'm really trying not to let the world or my mind break me.

I won't link to the actual conspiracy theory document, but it's easily found.

So, April is here, and everyone in red is not being paid. If you think that's right, you're in love with the business, not the music.

The "muh, Israel bad" sect has been whipped into an irrational frenzy by state-sponsored misinformation, and there's not much anyone can do to convince them of that fact.

It's rare, but nice when we get a standing O after the first half of the concert.

Also, it's one of the only times I've performed a major choral work where NO ONE in the audience interrupted the silence between movements, or the silence at the end.

The audience has finally been trained.
👏👏
